 |  | advice/tips for drains
< on 2/6/2008 1:00 AM >
|  | | | ok well so most of you know about my goal of getting into the kearns tunnels this coming summer. and in my pursuit to find a way in a came across an interesting fact that might just help. ive heard that theres a drain entrance behind a store called reams and ive also heard that this drain leads to the tunnels somehow. so when it gets warmer me and a friend or two are gonna head down there and see what its like. another friend of mine said that her and some other people went down there and traveled for about an hour and then headed back. she said that the drains were very dark and very small.
things i do know about draining:
* bring at least 2 flashlights per person + extra batteries
* if it rains no drains
things i want to know:
* since its a small drain how can i get through without hurting my back?
* do you think its possible to get into tunnels through drains?
* how many people should come?
* a good way not to get lost
* any other advice/tips you have?
i know i had more questions but i cant remember... silly me

| | | | One technique which I find to be very effective (and fun) is to use a skateboard. You lay on it, and slide yourself through. I'm not sure how "small" you mean, but I like doing it that way  For this technique, you need to take into account the surface you're crossing, if it's too mucked up, it won't work very well.
I won't comment on anything else you listed because I am not very experienced with drains/tunnels. I'll leave those to the other members.

|
try a skateboard or one of those battery powered scooters.. but dont gun the battery all the time. just when you get tired

|
ermm beside tagging the wall (bad) use string.. get a few spools of string and when you get to the end to the start of the next one

ermm dont die.. better yet I cannot advise you actually going.. instead tape a camcorder to a local dog and attach a flashlight and a hotdog on a string.. and if you want your camcorder back.. a really long leash

| | | | i really dont have a scooter and my skateboard is too messed up to use lol. im not really sure how small it is either she just said that its really small and that it hurt her back going threw it. i like the dog idea though, too bad i dont have a camcorder or a dog lmao XD that string idea seems like it would work just fine i think ill bring a spool of thread when i go thanks for the help so far you guys.
any more advice anybody? mainly techniques on getting through without totally killing my back lol

| | | | Have a look through the threads here in the rookie forum,you'll likely find all kinds of info that way. I know nothing about drains,so I have no tidbits of advice to offer.
Good luck!

| | | | its a good idea to bring a towel and an extra shirt, and some hand sanitizer. I don't use that stuff anywhere except drains cause who knows whats in the water you might find.
And put everything in a ziplock bag and then put the things in ziplock bags into more ziplock bags.

| | | | How about some non-drain advice? Stop typing 'lol' and things like 'XD' into every other post you make! If you want people to take you seriously and actually be helpful to you, you've got to appear sincere and at least somewhat serious yourself. I'm not saying your grammar has to be perfect, or that you can't occasionally 'lol' if something is actually funny-enjoy your time here by all means but remember, first impressions stick.....

| | | | Here is some drain advice. When in a drain, take off all your close and do a belly flop into the water. Brown water equals =)
